B7 S4 2007 vs 2006 models
Hello, I'm new and this is my first post so be nice!
Happy New Year.
Im looking at getting a B7 S4 and there seems to be a jump in cost between the 2006 and 2007 models. (here in the UK £14000 vs £19000 average)
i know from reading up the 2007 R7 model had a few tweaks over the 2006 R6 but does anyone know if they are worth the extra money? The wheels look nicer (In my opinion) and i won't be driving the car hard so am not sure if the tweaks will make any difference to me.
Thanks for your time.

Heres what i gleaned from Wikipedia (via ETKA) re the 2007 tweaks:
from model year 2007, an updated Torsen T-3 automatically biasing centre differential, featuring a 'default' asymmetric 40:60 front-rear torque split on manual transmission models, along with the later Bosch ESP 8.0 Electronic Stability Programme and gloss black painted brake callipers. The 'Avus-III' roadwheels now became an option, and were replaced by a standard offering 8.0Jx18 inch 'S-design' 7-spoke forged alloy wheel.
Happy New Year.
